Synchronous e-learning has received much less research attention, as compared with asynchronous e-learning. Practitioners that consider using and designing synchronous e-learning are in urgent need of guidance. In order to address this need, we propose design exemplars for synchronous e-learning. They are directed towards a primary constituent community of teachers, administrators, managers and de

This paper aims to bring out the Swedish detention centres, an institution unknown for a lot of people, in the light and problematize their existence. The purpose of the centres is keeping those subject to deportation and removal in detention until a decision is made by the Swedish Migration Agency. From the very beginning, it felt important to enlighten this subject by giving a voice to the unhea

Barn som berörs av avhysning ställs i likhet med barn som drabbas av utmätning av bostad inför risken att förlora sitt hem. En trygg hemmiljö anses vara av stor vikt för barnets utveckling och främja behovet av stabilitet. Barn som befinner sig i osäkra beroendesituationer riskerar att påverkas negativt på flera plan, och upplever inte sällan stark oro och försämrat psykiskt mående. I denna uppsChildren who are affected by an eviction are, like children affected by attachment and sale of a house due to enforceable debt, faced with the risk of losing their home. A safe home environment is considered to be of great importance for the child's development and promotes the need for stability. Studies show that children subject to unsettled housing situations tend to experience grave anxie

This thesis concerns the current highly debated issue on the Swedish labour market, regarding the prevailing lack of integration of immigrants. Firstly, it is common that highly educated individuals find themselves at work positions where they are overly qualified in terms of education and experience, for example, when an engineer works as a taxi driver. Secondly, there is a higher rate of unemplo

This study aims to illustrate the complexity when integrating environmental and climate strategic questions in local governments. The study gives an account for significant aspects when mainstreaming environment and climate consideration in municipality organizations, what obstacles there are and how it can be organized in order to be more successful. For this purpose a qualitative approach has be

In the last decade Central and Eastern Europe faced surge in foreign capital inflows and economic growth. Foreign direct investment played significant role in forming government policies, development in the infrastructure and national income generation. While most research has been done on FDI impact on per capita real GDP growth, this paper takes alternative approach and examines the effects of t

Business Intelligence (BI) users have started to demand more flexible products, which has forced the BI field to move towards self-service. Flexible products do however imply new challenges for designers, in order to facilitate such design. Thus, BI designers must be capable of understanding organizations better and what decision makers need, and thereafter frame appropriate solutions for them. Th

Sports have been shown to influence and shape humans in many ways. However, how sports background influences decision-making in early stage entrepreneurial ventures has not been examined closely. Hence, this thesis addressed this gap and explored how sports backgrounds influence decision-making in early-stage ventures. More specifically, it delved into how experience as an elite team sports athlet

The increase in crime is a high-profile problem area within the criminal policy debate in Sweden. Most political parties present stricter penalties as a possible solution. It is regulated by Swedish law how inmates shall, during their imprisonment, receive support in order to successfully reintegrate into society upon their release. This is in order to not relapse into crime. At the same time, for

This thesis explores the ways in which architectural sites establish and maintain Dubai’s claim to global city status. In a globalized world, localities must succeed in translocal networks in order to ensure their survival and prosperity, and global recognition of local uniqueness is thus integral to the establishment of global cities. Architecture plays an essential role in producing locality in

This article analyses Iwawa, a rehabilitation centre for ‘delinquent’ young men in Rwanda. Like prisons, detention centres and refugee camps elsewhere, Iwawa is both a place of nurture and abandonment; of improving life and disallowing it. We argue that in order to grasp these tensions, we might pay attention to the role of death in disciplining those who are confined. A common way for these young

Failure in wood is commonly considered as a sign of properly chosen adhesive for wood adhesive joints. It is argued that as the adhesive is stronger than the surrounding wood material, no concern has to be given to the adhesive properties in joint design. However, by means of theoretical arguments in combination with experimental experience in the present study, it is stated that local bond line p

Introduction: Individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are at high risk of experiencing atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), which is associated with morbidity, mortality and healthcare resource utilisation. Clinical guidelines recommend the use of glucose-lowering medications with cardiovascular benefits in individuals with T2D and cardiovascular disease, but there is evidence that this

Previous research has acknowledged the effect of prosody on inter-gestural coordination, but specifically the effect of tones is still understudied. This paper has a two-fold purpose. First, it aims to explore effects of the Swedish word accents on word-initial consonant–vowel (CV) coarticulation. Second, it aims to revisit the existing evidence for tonal integration.

Digital images are an intuitive way to capture, store and analyse organismal phenotypes. Many biologists are taking images to collect high-dimensional phenotypic information from specimens to investigate complex ecological, evolutionary and developmental phenomena, such as relationships between trait diversity and ecosystem function, multivariate natural selection or developmental plasticity. As a

"Growing up in Rosengård is quite nice!" – Social capital - a different perspective to consider young adults in Rosengård [translated title]. The aim of this study was to understand young adults’ experiences of living in the segregated and stigmatized inner-city neighbourhood of Rosengård. This area is well known in Sweden as a poverty zone, with high criminality, drugs and unemployment

This article discusses the conversion experiences as recalled by Irish women who converted to Islam during the so-called ‘Celtic-Tiger’ period—the years of Ireland’s dramatic economic boom and major socio-cultural transformations between 1995 and 2007. In this period, the increasing religious diversity of Irish society and the decline of the social authority of the Catholic Church facilitated the

The notion of a language norm is far from clear. Lacking a conclusive explication, one may wonder what language studies are actually studying. Is it the experience of speakers? Is it their brains? Is it their behavior? Is it the product of expert intuitions? Even within linguistics the views seem scattered on this point, and no consensus has been reached on what the object of study in linguistics
